The devotee will have to carry these heavy burdens while going on a procession and dance along a pilgrimage route from one temple to another.

On a side note, from now on, I will be moving on to the new mirrorless Canon R6 Mark II camera, so it may take a while for me to use it to its full potential, as currently I am still trying to master the AF settings that the R6 Mark II offers as part of the learning curve
